Tales from the City of Opal

Game Master Patrick Curtin

This is my homebrew world Arcaia. This particular setting is the free city of Opal, a lush equatorial city set on the edge of an immense jungle rife with undead , ancient civilizations, and dinosaurs.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Hi everyone!

I just want to wish everyone a Happy New Year and give you all an update on my schedule

As some of you have likely noticed, I have not been about a lot. I have had a lot on my plate these past couple of months, and although I truly love GMing, I had to cut corners somewhere. Thus, I have not been updating in a timely fashion. For this I apologize. If I wanted to take the easy way out, I would just shutter the three games I am running, but I don't want to do that. Gaming is one of my most cherished pastimes, even if I have not had time for it lately.

On a more positive note: it seems like my house will be sold this Friday. This is the culmination of eight months of pretty intensive labor and stress, especially since I was left to do it all on my own. Having this project done will free up some time.

I am also beginning a Paralegal program this week. Paradoxically I think that I might have some extra time with the MBTA commute into Boston. That's a developing issue, and I will see if it affects my time.

Anyway, thank you all for your patience. I love our games, and I am loathe to shutter them. I hope we can get to a place where I am posting regularly again

-Patrick.

Alright Patrick, if the games have lasted this long they'll keep for a few more weeks.


Yeah, what Guy said. ;)

Take it easy when you can Pat.
Glad to hear that things are at least moving for you!

Luck with the new Paralegal course. I hear those are tough.

I'll be the one cheering for you from WAY over here! <waves> ;)

Ok update: school is going well. I believe I should be able to start posting again soon, so watch for new posts. I am going to go old school with the maps, and I've had to reconstruct the NOCs do it will be a bit rocky to wrap this fight up. Bear with and if I make an error feel free to correct me


Awesomesauce!

Glad to hear school is going well. (Or at least going!) ;)

I eagerly await new posts! :D

You just made my very long week not seem quite so long! :)

Ok quick update: I almost have my old computer updated and fixed. I hope to have a map posted today or tomorrow. It looks as if pretty much everyone is here, so I will just wrap this up and we can move on to the next thing (finally)


And well worth the wait I have no doubt! ;)

I'm here! Will get Iz's action posted up this weekend. Sorry, been house hunting, haha.


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Good for you! I'm hoping to go through the last bits of mapping and post tomorrow


Schwing! :)


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Just a quick update for my long-suffering players:

I have mid-terms this week, and I also need to get a CDL permit at some point. However, I also do not have any shifts (as of yet). So, while I do hope to get things moving along, I might get caught up in the chaos of my life and be unable to. Just a heads up. I am still around.


Male Elf Paladin/Ranger 4/1

As always, we are here. Get your stuff handled, I am not going anywhere.
:)


What he said!
:)

I have 3 college degrees, and I cannot imagine having to study for Legal-stuff.
Just thinking about it gives me a headache! ;P

Good luck!
;)

Pat, this game started in November of 2008 - almost 7 1/2 years ago. I think it's safe to say we'll be here when you're ready! :-) And good luck!


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Hi all. Just a quick update:

I had hoped to keep things rolling along, but the added time commitments of school and CDL training have left me working 15-18 hr days. I am still here, and I do want to carve out some time for the game, but in all fairness I think I will be locked up at least until mid May. I don't want you guys to be waiting. So, I am calling a hiatus, and hopefully once I finish my semester and the CDL training I will be able to refocus on moving us forward.

Thank you all once again for putting up with my crazee life and inconsistent posting.


No need to thank us, I'm grateful to you for the fun!

Drive buses, make good grades, get the now-rare-9-5 job, and THEN we'll unleash holy murder-hobo-itry upon the unsuspecting evil mobs!
;P

Good luck Pat, keep us updated! :)

As Bryan said, I think it's safe to say that we'll be here when your ready. ;)

Yeah, I've been thinking of a rewrite of Dolly Parton's song:

Working 9 to 5
God I wish I had those hours
With the weekend off
Working in a nice clean tower
Dressed in decent clothes
And not working after midnight
I swear sometimes I can't remember sunlight....
9 to 5 .... (Yadda yadda)

Hi guys! I am literally studying for my final final as we speak :D

I have been thinking a lot about these games, and I believe that I will be ready to move forward as soon as this weekend. YAY!!!!

Thank you all for your patience. It has been appreciated:D


According to the treehouse thread, you've been a busy monkey! ;)

Sounds like it's all paying off. (Maybe not in actual money) ;P

But you sound like your doing good in the book-study department. Good work! :)


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Well, school is officially over until September. Laissez les bon temps roulet!

I'll be working in this ASAP


Male Half-elf Ranger / 6 (Falconer)

Woo! Hoo!


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Ok. Quick update. I labored with my ailing older laptop today, and it finally just died. Well, at least the keyboard did. I am working on getting this together again, but I have to wait until Thursday when I get paid and I'm signing up for the Adobe Photoshop CC service. I just need to get it onto my newer laptop. The $10 a month is worth it.

Anyway I know you have all been very patient, and I feel confident I can get things rolling soon


Woo Hoo indeed!
:)

Cool news.

Here's hoping for a nice summer! (For ALL of us!) ;D


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

So, quick update. I finally pulled the trigger on the Adobe PS. I went with a hard copy: More money upfront, but no subscription.

As soon as it arrives I will be installing and getting the maps reconfigured. Then we can move ahead.

Thank you again for your patience.

All good.


No worries Pat!

We'll just wait here for you to get the maps re-configured.
THEN we'll slice, dice and grill some shark-steaks! :)

Seriously, is all good. I saw in your treehouse thread you're a tad,... busy today. Get some sleep before you try to load anything on your PC and accidentally delete the hard drive! ;)


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

As long as I get six hours sleep I'll be good


Six WHOLE hours?!?

o_O

I wouldn't know what to do with that many hours of sleep.

In a row.

;P

Enjoy your well-earned rest Monkey-Miester!

Well I got 4 1/2 before I got called back to work. It'll do


OI!

Good thing you didn't try to stay up and do something else before going to bed!
:)
Be safe!
